Magnitude potential vorticity CAT diagnostic

The magnitude of potential vorticity, \(|\text{PV}|\), was used by [Knox2001] to show that unbalanced regions, indicated by low potential vorticity, were a source of CAT.

Parameters:

potential_vorticity (DataArray) – potential vorticity

__init__(potential_vorticity: DataArray) → None[source]#
Parameters:
